I want to be able to create a 128MB size limited smartlist and SEND TO network drive.

The network drive is a shared Compactflash memory card on another workstation.

I don't want to use a special removable media plug-in.

I would like to use this technique to sendto 700MB of mp3 to a folder for burning with NERO. I don't want to use the installed CD-BURN feature.

I know I can highlight all the song in the smartlist. then rightclick and then Tools-Move/Copy Disk file, then select the folder. But this is too many steps.

HELP...


Thanks

Could you try expanding "My Computer" in the MJ Tree and then drop the files on the correct folder?

No, Not fast enough.

*** I haven't actually tried this ****

But it should work, I'll try it in a little bit and see too though.

On the Send To menu there is an option for "External Tool"  You should be able to create a batch file, or script, that simply accepts the output for MC and copies it to your desired location.  From what I can see it looks like MC just spits out the file/path info to your external program.  Not the most elegant solution but it should do what you are looking for.

But then again, I would think just dropping them onto the directory you want them in would be good to.  

Hope this helps.

Well I had a chance to try this out.. and it doesn't seem to work very well.

MC is only passing the first filename in the playlist to the external program.  Other than that minor detail it would work.  Does anybody know if this is by design?  Or am I missing something setting it up?

You could write a vbs script to capture all filenames and copy them.

Not to hard.


I noticed that you can drag files from MC to removable drive window.

I have found this to be the quickest way so far.

a similar external script could be used for moving files to directdisk formatted CDRW.

MJ Should support keywords such as:
[FileNames] (in addition to [FileName])
to do that.
